My Voice Experience
I started out with a Hollywood Stunt Career in 1984 that lasted as long the injuries allowed. I was involved in bit part motion picture acting, along with commercial acting. I have several years of voice training as well as on the job training.
I bartended for several exclusive night clubs in the Los Angeles area within a 5 year period. Learning how to say the right thing at the right time while being under pressure, was crucial.
I was a gymnastics coach for Level I competitive women for 8 years in the Los Angeles area (this taught me the art of communication and ingenuity, in all aspects).
I was also a police officer for 7 years in the Los Angeles area. I obtained the ultimate negotiation and conversational skills that I possess today. Not necessarily always fun, but definitely different.
